Monthly Musings {January 2025}

 Happy Thursday! We are sooo close to the weekend and so close to February! I am linking up with Holly and Patty today for the first Monthly Musings of 2025!

1. What do you do to stay warm in the winter?

Heated blanket!! I'm using mine as I type this!

2. Favorite wintertime activity?

Staying inside. Where it's warm. 😂

3. Any different beauty routines in winter?

Lots of extra moisture! My skin gets so dry in the winter. Whether it's thick night creams, serums, or oils, I just like to lock in as much moisture as possible.

4. Skating, sledding, or skiing?

I hug the wall when I ice skate. I've never been sledding. I have never tried to ski. I don't get out too much in the winter- ha!

5. Favorite winter recipes?

All the soups, red beans and rice, and baked goods!

6. Favorite winter hot beverage?

Coffee!

7. Best winter memories?

Anytime it has ever snowed way down here in Mississippi!

8. Coldest day that you remember?

Last year around MLK Jr. Day...we had lots of ice on the roads, and it was FREEZING! 

This was me on that frigid night!

9. How are you practicing self care this winter?

Keeping up with my skincare, getting in an exercise or walk when I can, WATER. I think we feel like we need less water in the winter, but we need tons!

10. Flannel sheets...yes or no?

Big fat NO from me! I love a crisp, cool sheet!

Have a great Tuesday!

Let's Look: January 2026

 Happy Wednesday!! Let's Look is one of my very favorite blog link ups and after not doing it last year, I am ready for it in 2026! I am linking up with Shay and Erika for this monthly series! Today, we are LOOKING at..... THINGS WE OUTSOURCE WITHOUT REGRET. Ok, there are so many things you can outsource that I just would rather do myself. I love to grocery shop. I think I would be weirded out by someone else doing my laundry. A house keeper is just not something we currently need or really want. BUT, there are occasions when outsourcing is just what needs to be done. Grocery Delivery/Pickup We don't do this often, but when we do it's pretty nice. That being said, I am usually ready to get back in the grocery store myself! Food Delivery This is another one we do not do often, but a Wednesday free delivery from Wingstop has sucked me in a few times 😂. And of course, pizza delivery is always nice! Plus, we can get food delivered to the school I work out, so that's nice e...

Friday Favorites {4.2.26}

 Happy THURSDAY. My days are getting so mixed up with a Friday holiday haha! Posting Friday Faves a day early since tomorrow is Good Friday. Whoop whoop! We're getting a 7Brew!! I'm gonna let the new wear off before I go, but dang I am so excited for this! Have y'all tried it?? My sister gave me this MacKenzie Child's cookie jar for my bday and I love!! I made some white chocolate, peanut, and M&M clusters and they looked so cute in it! I will try just about anything once haha, but I finally jumped on the Tik Tok bandwagon and grabbed this facial brush for lymphatic drainage. My mind could very easily be playing tricks on me, but I'm gonna say I see a difference! Got mind from Amazon! And I cannot close out this post without mentioning Autism Awareness and Acceptance Month! Please, please, please educate yourself on what it means to have Autism, how to explain it to your children, how to advocate, how to include, how to help- all the things!! Please remember, if...

Friday Favorites {12.20.24}

 Happy Friday, friends!! And Merry Christmas Eve Eve Eve Eve Eve- that's a thing, right??😂 I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea today to share some faves from the week, and then I will be off for the holidays! My plan is to see y'all back here on January 13! For some food faves.... I grabbed the raspberry kringle at Aldi the other day after seeing so many positive reviews on it. It is really good!! I had some with a cup of coffee a couple times this week! Last night, Caleb made lasagna soup- YUM. Definitely a favorite of mine lately! A great way to end the night.... Caleb made me a cosmopolitan the other night. Yum! I am really going to miss this sight.... This is my favorite time of year for sure! Twinkly lights and candle light = the BEST. On my drive home from work yesterday.... This was a fun little surprise. I don't remember this from last year! I hope you all have a great weekend and a very Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday! However, whatever, whenever, whereve...
